An estimated 500 million to 1 trillion plastic bags are used and discarded worldwide, so pick up your needles and do your bit for this global problem. Why not make yours even more eco-friendly by picking some really funky vintage fabric? An Ebay search will quickly bring up some great selections, such as this one here -- simply order a design you like, whip up the bag, and end up with a unique item that'll be the envy of all your friends! Follow the jump to find out what you'll need...
